"Unbooking" two screwjob finishes that took place more than 20 years ago. And it's not even the same promotion. God I love wrestling. Hogan must be so proud. I'm sure he'll be bragging about it all night long at the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony.

so its not the same promotion that was own by verne, but the owner of it did buy the rights to use the name and title history from verne or got it threw bankrupty court or what ever...he has the right to use the history of the awa...so what i am trying to say is he want to change the history of the awa by making hogan a two time AWA champ then he can.

True, Dale Gagner allegedly acquired the rights to the AWA in BK court so he is legally entitled to say whatever he wants. Wrestling is all a work so it doesn't really make a difference to me, but aside from what's his name the problem is everybody looks at the current AWA as a complete joke. I guess it's cool that Gagner is paying "tribute" to Hogan in his own way (not so coincidentally right before Hulk is scheduled to go in the WWE Hall of Fame), but "reversing" two screwjob finishes that were booked that way more than 20 years later just so he can add his name to the list of former champions is kinda stupid in my view. He can play games with the title history all he wants to, but unless he can get Hogan to make some appearances for him so they can incorporate it into the show somehow and make some money off of it, why should anyone care?

Very true why should any one care, it just adds 2 more world titles to hogans list all it does is make the AWA seem more important because hogan is on the list...And true this awa is a not important as the old awa just as the nwa is now compared to the nwa of the old...But seems like just for history sake and name use many feds have "join" the AWA as feds have "join" the NWA..in the long run for indy wrestling that is a good thing.

also i guess that add two more world title wins to bockwinkles title list

The AWA did these types of Dusty finishes quite a bit. The people in the arena thought they'd seen a title change only to find out the next week on television that the decision had been reversed. I don't count it. If I did, I'd have to count every single time it happened.
